“It was meant to happen to me. I really feel like things happen in your life to teach you things,” Kardashian said during a 2017 appearance on The Ellen Show.

Kardashian has frequently been outspoken about the robbery and has often revealed details about what happened to the media. In a March 2017 Instagram post, Kardashian shared what she learned from the incident ahead of an episode of Keeping Up With the Kardashians that was centered on the robbery.

“I thought it was important to share this story through my eyes & not in an interview where my own words could be twisted. I have always shared so much & I'm not going to hold back when this was probably one of the most life changing experiences for me,” Kardashian explained at the time.

Kardashian also talked about how life-changing the robbery was in her life and how “blessed” she felt for having survived it. “I would never wish this experience upon anyone, but have learned some valuable lessons & feel so blessed to be safe home with my babies & husband.”

Overall, it seems like this incident has truly affected Kardashian and will likely continue to do so over the long term. Hopefully, Kardashian is finding it easier to think about and cope with as time goes on. One positive thing to come out of this is that she seems to appreciate things so much much and feels she’s changed for the better.
